To replace the wiper arms, open the front bonnet and remove the protective caps from the fastening nuts of the arms; then, unscrew the nuts, lower the bonnet, and pull the arms from their seats (if there are signs of corrosion, spray some penetrating oil); if the wiper blades are still good, remove them from the old arms and fit them onto the new ones by rotating them 90 degrees and disengaging them by pulling them backwards; then, insert the blades onto the new arms, ensuring they click into place, and reattach the arms by tightening the respective fastening nuts and replacing the caps.

How to reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV?

To reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV, inflate the tyres until they reach the correct pressure value. This value is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tyres are inflated, turn on the instrument cluster to check that the warning light has completely disappeared from the display. If it is still present, you may need to drive for a few miles to ensure it disappears completely from the screen.
